Office (outlook) 2K problem + resolution

Greetings one and all from the Dark continent!
I have spent the last 2 weeks working on 3 computers, trying to configure them to use MSMail and a new Exchange server. However, Office keeps asking for the "Premium" CD, when all that was ever installed was "Professional ". I tried re-installing ofice pro, which did not work. I even tried uninstalling and re-installing office, again did not work. I got my hands on a premium CD, but even that did not work ( "not a valid source "). On two of the PCs, I eventually gave up, and reformatted. However, on the third one, I had an inspiration - Install to a different folder. And it worked, without reformatting!.
Just thought I'd pass this along, as it was driving me crazy, and thought I'd spare others a simialr madness. Insanity is fun, but only for a while

 

Ryder,
That's a good tip - thanks !
